Add column under employee panel

Hi,

What I am looking to do is to add another column to the panel of employees to contain a unique ID that is not the primary key of the user in the database. This ID does not need to be stored in the database, it can be retrieved from an API that corresponds to the employees username.

The change I am looking to perform is on the front end. Alternatively, if this is not possible, would it be possible to create another table, link it to the employee table and return the unique ID to the new column in the employee view?

Thanks

SuiteCRM offers a front end development tool called Studio. You access it via the Admin menu.
From there you can create custom modules, custom fields, modify the different views and many more customizations.

I’ll recommend you to reading the documentation here: https://docs.suitecrm.com/admin/administration-panel/studio/
You’ll be amazed the power it gives you:)

Thanks,

AlxGr
